The combination of input and autoSize is what's killing you. Do you
really need the textfield to resize with the text entry?
If not, you're better off setting the width and height explicitly.
However, if you don't know the size before you enter text, then here is an
alternative:
True - that's how I've used it anyway - you still have to load in an XML
file into an XML object. Then you can call specific nodes. So XPath
doesn't create an additional object representation of the XML file like
many other parsers do, but it does have to load in the entire XML file
first.

Are you specifying a width for this text field? I can't duplicate

You can also try NOT grabbing the XY values of the actual clips - you
could create a function that calculates and pre-populates an array of
